Switching case

Hi,

 

Last year I bought an ACER Predator 3000 and I was wondering if I can rebuild the PC into another case since the original case of ACER IS quite loud...

 

Would be nice if someone could help me out with this. Thanks.

Welcome,

 

You absolutely can put it in another case, just keep in mind that while there are cases designed for optimal silence, your likely culprit of noise is cheap fans/coolers, and changing cases likely won't fix that.

Thank you for your quick reply!

 

I get it. But here's the problem: The PC is running smoothly while I'm doing "normal" stuff but as soon as I start a game the fan that is used in the stock case is going crazy and is loud as heck. I was thinking about just changing the fan but i don't even know how to get to that :D without destroying the case of course. I think it would be easier to reinstall the components in a new "silent case" and I'm good.

You'd have to take the case apart wither to change fans or build in a new case. Building in a new case is FAR harder than replacing some fans. 

Your GPU is a blower style and your CPU cooler is a cheap top-down stock cooler. These are the true sources of your noise, and a "silent" pc case will do little to alleviate this.
